Movie Theaters were a magical place before the dark times, before covid. When the pandemic hit, all forms of entertainment were effected in different ways. Cinemas became the first to go and the biggest question then became....how would they survive?

Star Wars has always excelled in expanding the universe beyond the films. Whether it be the legends of old, or the current extended universe of games, novels, comics, and animations.

On todays show we break down why the series has resonated so well with a wider audience than the recent sequel trilogy and what the future holds for the live action extended universe.

In 2018 we shot our first short film, "Dear Hearts and Gentle People". 

It was a labor intensive effort that required everyone’s schedules, attention and sanity. For todays show we will be talking about the process this took from both a technical and personal level. From the perspectives of the Writer/Director & Director of Photography. Marciel Delgado and Alonso Castillo discuss the trials and effort required to make a short film, film school, how whatever can go wrong will go wrong on set and why that's a good thing. 

It’s a joy to work on film and even more so to share the experience with all of you.

The concept of another Spider-Man was nothing new in 2011. Yet the medium paused for a moment when Marvel introduced a young afro-latino from Brooklyn as the new Ultimate Spider-Man. Since then Miles Morales has come to shine as an example of how to properly execute a legacy character, represent both black/latino cultures in storytelling & become one of the best characters at the house of ideas. On todays episode We discuss the many incarnations of the character across all mediums from the Ultimate Comics, Into the Spiderverse and the new PS5 game. Along with what it meant for representation in what was an almost non existent conversation at the time.

The video game console is at times one of the most nostalgic things imaginable for a gamer. Casual or hardcore, you remember where you where when you had it.

The exclusives, drama and turmoil that created a sometimes stagnant but always evolving generation.
